Thanks for the information! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0"> <br />I heard that Tamarine Tanasugarn try to request late entry at Canberra because she could not go to Sydney in time for qualify. Her name appear as no. 2 seeded in qualify list of Sydney.

The reason is she is playing The Hong Kong Ladies Challenge this week until 4th Friday. Does anyone can get the information, please post.

Remove all the those and their are like 3 top 300 Aussies unallocated in Dittmann, McShea and Musgrave.

So Hewitt wasn't a ridiculous choice at all. For starters she would draw the most interest of the remaining players because of who her brother is. Secondly she has already played in 2 WTA events last year. She beat Nola, pushed McQuillan to 7-5 in the 3rd, pushed Farina 6-3 7-5 last year and also played Lina Krasnoroutskaya so she probably has more experience at this level other than McShea and Musgrave.

I hope she can cause an upset, either way its a good experience for her and I hope I get to see her play on TV! Cos I haven't seen her play for 2 years.

Yeah look nbothing against hewitt and best of luck to her.<br />I just would have thought wheeler would have been a more obvious choice. Who knows maybe she didn't want to accept a wildcard in Sydney.<br />There are many other players with a higher ranking that you would have thought would have been considered as well.
